I wait till the last few minutes so I can see if anyone is even interested other than me,, !!  Sometimes when several are bidding,, other see it and think it must be a good one !! They may not even look at it normally but if a lot of others are,,they will jump in !! Last few minutes I put in my maximum bid and ebay does the rest !!

Just curious but have you ever seen the sign in person with the blue background ?? I have looked at several that appeared blue on the pic but the original is a darker blue green !!  Could be the pic only that looks blue !!  I saw non that were truly blue background !!

I have not seen another Picaninny Freeze sign with a blue background in person, the one I have has the green background like all the other ones on ebay. I also can't find another one searching the web which has the Pal/Bucket of Picaninny Freeze.. Very intriguing to me. I can't even find a picture or ad of the pal/bucket on anything via the web. I've been searching old new paper archives but no luck yet. Seller is super responsive to my questions so that's good.

Did he say what kind of board it was done on ??   I found tin and cardboard as the originals !!

He's saying he's "not completely certain but appears to be cardboard - the edges are very delicate"
